I want to introduce something new to the platform instead of the same old tycoon / simulator idea (even though some are good) Like how pls donate was the first game to make people donate (then many people copied) or like MM2 and adopt me (totally new fresh ideas that blew up) I probably will take what everyone says and combine it into some abomination lol

Well, I’m pretty much fresh out of unique game ideas. You might want to try doing existing game genres like Simulators, Story Games or others, but with a little twist. (For e.g. Obbies, but instead of using your keyboard, you draw how you move).
Obviously don’t copy the example, since doing so goes against developing a new game idea.

Hey thats my idea what the heck!!! 
Lol, jokes aside @eeveelinknugget you should try thinking of a unique mechanic and then build from there, it all starts with the foundation

So alright man let me actually spill my original game idea, so basically right now im making an obby where you can move but actually I got the movement mechanic from an entirely different game that is actually on mobile and it’s actually a fighting game (whichh I do plan to make probably) but out of no where I realied this could be used as a mechanic for a 2D OBBY!
So honestly check out mobile games because its a great start to find some ideas that havent been done before and then spin it off on a platform like roblox and go crazy
But so I basically took the movement mechanic from that game and just made a whole new game out of it related to roblox

If you really want a unique idea, I suggest you just sit in your room and brainstorm different types of ideas. If you really want a unique idea, then don’t take it from somebody else, instead, spend time and come up with it yourself.

I remember seeing this ad everywhere. Also yeah that helps!
Yeah I tried that already @RainyBora and still am doing that. I just put this post on the forum if I hear a post and then change it up a little bit like paraphrasing.

I would say think about a personal opinion about a game, preferably negative (they are normally stronger opinions), and think about why you have that opinion.
I say opinions because they are based on you and how YOU think. Although your opinion may be biased based on others’ input, it’s still how you feel about something. I would suggest trying games you have never heard before and testing them out then immediately identifying your likes and dislikes. It will tell you a lot about yourself and the vision you want to create for your new or potential game idea.
If it’s a negative opinion you have about a game, think about why you don’t like the game. Not vague stuff like “it’s boring”; instead what makes it boring specifically? Example: you don’t like MM2 because you think it’s unfair, why do you think it’s unfair? Because of teaming. Then build a game where players aren’t allowed to intervene with others game. Then implement that into your own game idea.
If it’s a positive opinion, do the same: think about why you feel that way specifically. Example: you love Brookhaven and think it is fun, why? Because it allows you to be somebody you aren’t but have always wanted to be. Then add that to list of things you want in your own game.
Slowly but surely you will have an idea of the type of game you want to create.
However this is more of a better plan when you have a small game idea already but if you have nothing, I would suggest taking inspiration from multiple different tv shows, books etc.
I don’t think any idea is one hundred percent unique, it all comes from somewhere linked to something else even if you don’t know it. So adding all of these random features of other games will make your game unique I think.
Furthermore, I would say choose something that you personally love and have never seen before on Roblox or seen done well. You like photography? Make a game to do with photography. You never know what floats people’s boat so just do what you would like to see.
I completely agree with creating unique mechanics to Roblox. Because it peaks people’s interest because they have never seen it before. Even if it is another simulator or something just because it has that unique mechanic makes it way more different compared to those other games.
Lastly, I would say venture out of Roblox for some unique ideas.
